4-2 for the good guys.
It seems like every bruins game is on national TV here in Canada, loving it.

I was saying this the other night. Seems like the Bruins have played an insane amount of games so far on national TV. I'll take it.
Tough game tonight against a much bigger, more physical team. They can definitely win it, but it won't be easy.

Of course I'm pulling for the B's, but I do have a soft spot in my heart for the Ducks after watching the All Star Game and learning about Katie Hawley. She's a 17 year old Ducks fan who sadly has been diagnosed with cancer for a third time. She had said this time she wanted to give up, but Rickard Rakell (her favorite player) and the team have been a great inspiration for her.
It was a needed dose of reality when I was being grumpy about things that really aren't that important.
This is truly sad. I cannot comprehend being diagnosed three times and having the courage to move forward. May she find strength do fight cancer again.

Certainly not in a position to question Cassidy, but why play two players in Spooner and Bjork on their off wings? My understanding is that Bjork is predominately a left hand RW and Spooner is a lefty C that is certainly playing better as a RW. I guess the idea is to not change 3 lines, but I’d like to see them try:
Heinen-Bergeron-Pasta
DeBrusk-Krejci-Bjork
Spooner-Nash-Backes
Maybe even flip Spooner and Heinen.

I've become pure "Americanised" in so much as I've gone from only ever expecting one game a week in the sports I grew up watching to becoming restless when I now have to wait 5 days in between a Bruins game! It has felt like a month!

Has the feeling of a let down game and this team has often laid eggs for the ducklings so we shall see!
Would be pretty impressive if they keep the streak alive

INJURIES (Total man-games lost in 2017-18: 162)
Charlie McAvoy underwent a successful procedure on 1/22 at the MGH to treat an abnormal heart rhythm. Following the Bruins game on 11/26, he told team physicians that he experienced heart palpitations during the game. Subsequently, he underwent an evaluation, which diagnosed him with a supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). The type of SVT he has is not considered to be dangerous to his health but can recur at any time and causes significant symptoms. After consultation with team physicians, as well as experts in this type of heart condition, he decided to have the condition treated with a procedure called an ablation. The decision to have the procedure done at this time is due to a high probability of recurrence. During the period from the initial occurrence through 1/20, he was cleared to play by the medical team and was monitored closely. The expected recovery period is 2 weeks.

He is quick to change up lines if they aren’t working,didn’t seem to like Bjork on the first line,he switched that up pretty fast.

She's an inspiration for sure. Kudos to Rakell and the Ducks for bringing her to All Star Weekend.

Chris Rooney tonight? f*** that noise. Bruins don't get calls to begin with. This idiot always makes his presence known that hes, "not calling one for the home team". Why does the NHL even let him ref our games? Move him to the West.

Haha , me too . Always thought there should be some kind of a discount when they are offering free previews on specialty channels etc.… Oh well, let’s just frickin’ win
This is from another thread . I think it is so cool so I copied it to here so all could see.....
This is Big Z on Brad
"I remember the day like it was yesterday when I was in the gym in 2008 getting ready for a game and watching world juniors on TV when Team Canada scored and this kid was jumping on the glass and threw his stick in the crowd. I was like “Who the f*** is this kid”?? Our coach back then J. Whitesides was watching it with me, turned to me and said “He is ours“. Quick fast forward and Brad had a big impact on our 2011 Championship or 2016 Worlds and 2016 World Cup. When Brad started playing in the @nhl what I liked about him was his willingness to learn. Something so vital for anybody in any field, or simply in real life. I am very happy for him, that his hard work is paying off. Congratulations Marshy and Thank you for representing us @nhlbruins at the All Star game in Tampa. Your captain #NHLAllStar #bostonbruins #bradmarchand #nhl #icehockey ———"————————————————————

Even Canadian citizens don't want to watch the teams from Canada play.

We need a thread just for Chara's social media posts. They are gold.
I disagree with this idea only because Spooner seems to have found a happy home on the RW of the second line. It might be better for Bjorkk,, but Spooner has had a hot hand scoring goals the past 7 or 8 games so would not want to change that unless needed.

No sir, Ducks beat us in Anaheim 11/15, 4-2.
I don’t like having a losing record to them either. Let’s do something about that!
